Use this parameter to define whether a work order must be single project only.
No (default) – Each product line on a work order can be assigned to a different project.
Yes – Product lines on a work order must be assigned to the same project as the first released product line on the work order, or blank (not assigned to a project).
Sage recommend this parameter is set to 'Yes'.
Sage recommend that a work order for a project should be single product only. That is, one work order for one product for one project. See the Comments section of this page for further information.

For Project management costs to be tracked in finance the project code assigned to a released product line determines the project analytical dimensions for that product line and the components in the bill of materials (BOM). The project code to which the first released product line on a work order is assigned not only determines the project analytical dimensions for that product line and the BOM components, but also the project analytical dimensions for the routing operations. For any subsequent product lines on a work order, project analytical dimensions for the components in the BOM are initialized for the project assigned to the first product line on the order; the project analytical dimensions for the routing operations remain initialized for the first released product line.
Sage recommend that work orders for a project are generated automatically from MRP suggestions. This minimizes the risk of inconsistencies as all product/project links are created automatically.
Sage recommend that a work order for a project should be single product only. That is, one work order for one product for one project.
